Über diesen Titel
“A deep and mysterious novel full of people that feel real. . . .An enthralling read and a must-have for your library. Zafón focuses on the emotion of the reader and doesn’t let go.” — Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Internationally acclaimed, New York Times bestselling author Carlos Ruiz Zafón creates a rich, labyrinthine tale of love, literature, passion, and revenge, set in a dark, gothic Barcelona, in which the heroes of The Shadow of the Wind and The Angel's Game must contend with a nemesis that threatens to destroy them.
Barcelona, 1957. It is Christmas, and Daniel Sempere and his wife, Bea, have much to celebrate. They have a beautiful new baby son named Julián, and their close friend Fermín Romero de Torres is about to be wed. But their joy is eclipsed when a mysterious stranger visits the Sempere bookshop and threatens to divulge a terrible secret that has been buried for two decades in the city's dark past.
His appearance plunges Fermín and Daniel into a dangerous adventure that will take them back to the 1940s and the early days of Franco's dictatorship. The terrifying events of that time launch them on a search for the truth that will put into peril everything they love, and will ultimately transform their lives.

This book, #3 was shorter but sharper and brought both books together, providing a connection between bookseller’s son Daniel Sampere and tortured author David Martin. This connection comes in the form of Fermin, the lovable rogue that played such a big role in The Shadow of the Wind. We hear his backstory, dating to his time as a political prisoner in Barcelona’s Montjuic prison in the early years of Franco’s dictatorship.
Like the other books, the writing (and translation) is sublime and apart from the good story, one is transported to Barcelona- warts and all. It’s incredibly atmospheric and one learns so much about the civil war years and aftermath. Highly enjoyable and I can’t wait to read the final instalment!
While the narrator was good I wonder why they have a different one for every book - would have preferred more continuity.
Wonderful continuation of the series!
